New York Arts Program

The New York Arts Program (NYAP) has been in New York City a long time. Over 50 years to be exact. We think it’s a special place, with great opportunities in the arts.  Our program puts your creativity to work with a fully immersive experience in New York City, through internships, individual advising, seminars, program events, and a capstone project.

The program is open to undergraduates or recent post-baccalaureate students ready to begin forging their professional path in the arts & creative industries. Academic credit is issued by NYAP’s managing college, Ohio Wesleyan University.

We welcome artists of all kinds, whether you're pursuing a career in visual arts, art history, film, media, music, theatre, dance, writing, publishing etc. or just want to explore the creative industries more generally!
